Dr. Eileen Carey McCoy

Death is nothing at all.
It does not count.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
Everything remains as it was.
The old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged.
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Call me by the old familiar name.
Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no sorrow in your tone.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think...

"Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. May you find comfort in the memories you shared remain in your hearts forever. Sending our deepest sympathy and condolences.".... Stephan, Sylvie, Paul and Daniel Namisniak (Brantford, Ontario, Canada)

Eileen was a sensitive, creative, and knowledgeable educator, leader, and friend. Often faced with trials she continued forward with admirable forbearance. Throughout she aided many who now share the sorrow of her passing. I am one of these and send my sympathy to her family and friends alike.

"God Bless Mommy Eileen! I have such great memories of her over the years...dinner, drinks, great conversation, walks, the beach trip to Avalon,
I will miss her dearly & so will all those that she touched & made a difference in their life! May her sister & bother in law (my Mom & Dad) her children, her grandchildren, and the entire Carey, McCoy, Whang, Hollister & McNamara Clan find peace in their love for Mommy Eileen. God Bless her as I know she will have a special place in Heaven!"

When I was in grammar school my father was a police officer who worked for Captain James Carey. On Sunday evenings, he would be detailed to drive Eileen from her home in Jersey City to St. Elizabeth's College in Convent Station, NJ and I usually accompanied him. We did this for most of Eileen's time at St. E's and she and her mother were very disappointed a few years later when I decided to attend Caldwell College for Women, St. E's rival!!! Eileen was a lovely person and I have many memories...

My condolences to you and the family. I worked with your mother at Raritan Valley Community College - she was proud of her Irish heritage and spoke with me often we shared some good laughter together. She will be fondly remembered with her smaile and laugh.

I am sorry to learn of Dr. McCoy passing ,she was my English Professor at the County College of Morris and i enjoyed taking courses with her,she was pleasant,professional, enlightening,interesting ,and popular with her students! God bless her and her family at this time! Sincerely, Peter L.Cullen

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

I remember Eileen with great fondness as a good friend and mentor. Her life made a great difference for so many,
